CALENDAR.

Application filed November 10,1921. Serial No. 514,366.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, PAUL O. Laurie, a citizen ot 'the United States,residing at Easton, in the county ot Northampton and State otPennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Calendar, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention relates to calendars, the primary object of the inventionbeing to provide a calendar having comparatively few parts, wherein onesection may be moved with respect to the remaining. sections to indicatepredetermined days and months oi a year.

Another object of the invention is to provide a calendar which may bereferred to, to ascertain dates of preceding years and months. Y

With the Jforegoing and other objects in view which will appear as thedescription proceeds, the invention resides in the combination andarrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafterdescribed and claimed, it being understood that changes in the preciseembodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within thescope of what is claimed, without departing trom the spirit of theinvention.

Referring to the drawings:

Figure 1 is a plan view of a calendar constructed in accordance with thepresent invention.

Figure 2 is a. plan view of the movable member disposed to the rear ofthe main member of the calendar.

Figure 3 is a plan view of the movable section associated with themovable member.

Figure et is a rear `elevational view of the calendar and Figure 5 is asectional view taken on line 5-5 of Figure 4.

Dreferring to the drawings in detail, the calendar embodies a mainmember indicated at 5 and which is constructed of card-board, or similarsheet material, the same being provided with a cut out portion 6disposed substantially centrally thereof, and through which out outportion, the movable member indicated at 7, and which is disposed behindthe member 5, may be viewed.

Elongated openings 8 are formed in the member 7, which openingsaccommodate the rivets indicated at 9, and permit of sliding movement etthe movable member 7 with respect to the member 5, so that the numberwhich are formed on the movable member 7, may be moved into alignmentwith various indicating characters on the member 5, for purposes to behereinafter more fully described.

Disposed between the members 5 and 7, is a movable member indicated at10, which is also provided with openings registering with the elongatedopenings 11 or' the member 7, which openings accommodate the rivets 12to permit of movement of the member longitudinally of the members 5 and7 to cover up certain indicating characters on the member 7. A columnindicated at 13 is formed at the left of the cut out portion 6, in whichcolumn are arranged indicating characters indicating the days of theweek, while at the right of the cnt out portion 6, are a plurality ofcolumns 111 in which are arranged the months of the years, the yearsbeing indicated above the column 14 as clearly shown by Figure 1 of thedrawings.

ln the use of the calendar, the calendar is shown in Figure 1 ot thedrawings indicating the days ot the month 'for J une 1921, February,March and November of v1922, and August of 1928, that is to say themember 7 has been moved to bring the numeral 1, indicating the first dayof the month opposite June in the right-hand column, which is disposedunder 1921 of the column above.

It it should be desirable to lind the day on which the 22 of February1922, falls, the member 7 is moved to bring the numeral 1 oppositeFebruary in the 1922 column. lVith the member 7 in this position, theeye follows the line of numerals to the lefthand column of the member 5,and it will be seen that February 22, 1922, falls on lVednesday.

It might be further stated that the slidable member 10 is moved to coverthe last numbers of the movable member 7, so that only the exact numbersof days of a month will be visible through the cut out portion 6.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is Acalendar including a body portion having a central'cut out portion, theportion of the body adjacent to the side edges of the cut out portionbeing ruled to provide columns for the reception ot indicatingcharacters indicating the days of the week and the months et' the year,a movable inem` Cil ber having numbers and having elongated openingsformed therein, rivets Carried by the body portion and disposed in theelongated openings to slidably connect the body portion and movablemember, and a movable member having elongated openings movable betweenthe body portion and first mentioned movable member, rivets carried bythe first mentioned movable member and disposed lin the elongatedopenings of the last mentioned movable member, and the last mentionedmovable member having a shoulder formed on one of the side edgesthereof, and said shoulder adapted to be moved to align with the numberson the first mentioned movable member.

ln testimony that I Claim the foregoing as my own. :I 'have heretoaffixed my signature.

PAUL O. LAUER.
